Global terms was a feature from the WordPress MU days where multisite and single site installs used different code bases.
In WordPress 3.0, WordPress MU was merged into one location and the UI [14854] and “on” switch [14880] for global terms were completely removed.
Even before this merge, global terms was bug infested and unreliable. After [14854]/[14880], the feature was no longer maintained and became increasingly broken as taxonomies progressed without it (term splitting and term meta do not work at all). At this point, the feature has not worked in 12+ years and there’s no hope for saving it.
This deprecates the remaining global terms related code and no-ops the functions.
Global terms, you don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.

This changes updates many strings to remove self-references to an undefined "we" collective across the WordPress Administration.
The goal of this change is to better match the guidelines and recommendations set forth in the make/core handbook, specifically:
> the word "we" should be avoided (…) unless its made very clear which group is speaking.

* `illegal_names`
* `limited_email_domains`
* `banned_email_domains`
If any of these options have a falsey value, treat it as an empty string. This addresses a PHP 8.1+ deprecation notice when passing a `null` value to `str_replace()`.
Additionally, avoid unnecessary type casting for better performance.

This avoids the performance overhead of the function call every time `dirname( __FILE__ )` was used instead of `__DIR__`.
This commit also includes:
* Removing unnecessary parentheses from `include`/`require` statements. These are language constructs, not function calls.
* Replacing `include` statements for several files with `require_once`, for consistency:
* `wp-admin/admin-header.php`
* `wp-admin/admin-footer.php`
* `wp-includes/version.php`

* Add missing translator comments.
* Fix placement of some translator comments. Translator comments should be on the line directly above the line containing the translation function call for optimal compatibility with various `.pot` file generation tools. The CS auto-fixing, which changed some inconsistent function calls to multi-line function calls, is part of the reason why this was no longer the case for a select group of translator comments.
Includes minor code layout fixes.
Polyglots, rejoice! All WordPress core files now have translator comments for all strings with placeholders!

- adds `role="presentation"` to the edit comment table
- removes a few pointless `<fieldset>` elements
- adds a few missing `<label>` elements
- adds the CSS class `class="td-full"` to table rows spanning to multiple cells
- adds explicit `scope="row"` attribute to the table headers in `options-permalink.php`: this table is better communicated as data table
- uses consistent label association in the "Privacy Settings" page
- in the installation page "Set up your database connection": associates descriptions to their inout fields using `aria-describedby`
- improves the link to gravatar.com in the `user-edit.php` page

Adds `role="presentation"` to the `<table>` elements used for layout purposes.
Ideally, HTML tables should be used for tabular data. When tables are used for layout purposes, it's important to remove any native semantics so that assistive technologies can correctly announce the table content in a linearized fashion.

WPCS 1.0.0 includes a bunch of new auto-fixers, which drops the number of coding standards issues across WordPress significantly. Prior to running the auto-fixers, there were 15,312 issues detected. With this commit, we now drop to 4,769 issues.
This change includes three notable additions:
- Multiline function calls must now put each parameter on a new line.
- Auto-formatting files is now part of the `grunt precommit` script.
- Auto-fixable coding standards issues will now cause Travis failures.

"Install" is not a noun, and while it might be acceptable to use the verb as a noun, it is not correct. Using the correct
noun, "installation", increases clarity, especially for non-native English speakers.

The new meta capabilities are called `install_languages` and `update_languages`. Prior to this change, there were no proper capability checks applied. Instead only the filesystem and related constants were checked, and for actual permissions a rather vague fallback was used where a user needed to have at least one of the other updating capabilities. In addition to being generally more verbose, the new capabilities make it possible for example to allow a user to update languages, but nothing else. By default they fall back to the original way of how they were handled.

`get_network()` falls back to the current network when called without any arguments. Between this and `get_current_network_id()`, we can replace almost all instances of the global `$current_site` and all instances of `get_current_site()`.
This effectively deprecates `get_current_site()`, something that we'll do in a future ticket.

These no longer return upon refreshing the page when JS is on and working, so users should be able to dismiss them. This is particularly important on the post edit screen when DFW is triggered, but pretty much all notices can be dismissed if needed.
